I’m looking to buy a 991.1 in the next year and am obsessively scrolling through online listings. It looks like the vast majority of cars have a dark interior. No judgement cause my current car does too, but I love how you can see interior details with a lighter color and the contrast with the exterior is so nice. Am I alone on this one?

    I’ve got a 997.2 in Porsche Racing Green Metallic. The vast majority of them came with full Sand Beige interiors, unfortunately. It’s actually a great color combo, but the entire dash is in tan, and it should be black to cut down on reflections. The carpet, floor mats, steering wheel, shifter, and parking brake are Sand as well, so it’s a bit overwhelming. I just swapped to a 991.2 steering wheel in black along with black floor mats, and it looks 100% better. Next up will be the PDK and parking brake swapped to black as well, and then I’ll be happy. Airbag wasn’t attached yet, but you get the idea:

      Thanks for this…I just bought a 987.2 Cayman with exactly the same full Sand Beige interior and have been looking online for black steering wheel, PDK shifter knobs and trim pieces to swap in. Where did you source the steering wheel?
